Very strange.  I just tried making three definitions.  They worked as 
soon as I pressed the OK button to save them, and they also worked when 
I stopped and restarted Orca.

Did you save your damaged settings file?  It would be great if you saved 
it so we could take a look at it.

Oh dear.  :-(  Did you get a stack trace?  In these kinds of cases, 
getting a stack trace and any other useful information will help us 
understand the cause of the problem.
